点评:We have just completed an amazing 10 day trip in beautiful Rwanda. On a friend's recommendation, we booked with BEYOND THE HILLS, a small privately owned company. Adrien was extremely attentive from the beginning when we first made contact, responding immediately to inquiries, even on a Sunday ! Throughout our adventure, Adrien was always on hand to respond to any of our needs.
Together with his excellent driver, Damacene, we visited several different regions of this beautiful, lush country. Starting in Volcanoes Natl Park, we trekked to see the gorillas ( a magical experience !) and the following day we trekked again to see the golden monkeys. This too was a wonderful experience and offered an opportunity to enjoy the beautiful landscape. We moved on to Nyungwe Natl Park where we went in hot pursuit of the chimpanzees. It took a while to track them down in the jungle, but was well worth the effort. Finally we travelled to Akagera Natl Park and stayed in a lovely bush camp. Although we have been on several safaris, we had never seen so many rhinos!
Adrien accompanied us as well on several more unusual visits including the orphanage where he had spent 15 years, two border crossings with the Congo where we witnessed people constantly going back and forth, learning how to pick tea in the plantations with the experts. (they'll never hire us for sure !!), and a community visit to a local potter and her family. We were enchanted by their 3 year old daughter dancing for us with charm and grace !!
Adrien was always available, cheerful and helpful in every way. We couldn't recommend his services more highly !
NB: Strongly recommend using the services of the porters on the various treks - they were invaluable on the steep, super muddy paths !!
翻译:我们刚刚结束了在美丽的卢旺达为期十天的精彩旅程。经朋友推荐,我们预订了BEYOND THE HILLS这家小型私人旅行社的行程。从我们第一次联系Adrien开始,他就非常热情周到,即使是周日,也能立即回复我们的咨询!在整个旅程中,Adrien始终随时待命,满足我们的各种需求。
我们和他的优秀司机Damacene一起游览了这个美丽葱郁国度的几个不同地区。我们首先来到火山国家公园,徒步去看大猩猩(一次神奇的体验!),第二天又徒步去看金丝猴。这同样是一次美妙的体验,让我们有机会欣赏到美丽的自然风光。之后,我们前往纽格威国家公园,在那里追寻黑猩猩的踪迹。虽然在丛林中追踪它们花费了一些时间,但一切都非常值得。最后,我们来到阿卡盖拉国家公园,入住了一个舒适的丛林营地。虽然我们参加过好几次野生动物之旅,但从未见过这么多犀牛!
阿德里安还陪同我们进行了几次非常特别的参观,包括他生活了15年的孤儿院,两次穿越刚果边境(我们亲眼目睹了人们频繁往返),在茶园里跟专家学习采茶(他们肯定不会雇佣我们!),以及拜访一位当地陶艺家和她的家人。他们三岁的女儿为我们翩翩起舞,可爱又优雅,让我们着迷!
阿德里安总是随叫随到,热情开朗,乐于助人。我们强烈推荐他的服务!
附注:强烈建议在徒步旅行中使用背夫的服务——在陡峭泥泞的山路上,他们的作用至关重要!
